After Lin Yu left the house, he went to the market to buy the items he needed on the way. For some reason, an unusually large number of people buy things during this time.
"It's time for Yaotian City's heaven-sacrifice ceremony again. We monks from all walks of life in Bitian City should be preparing to rush to Yaotian City to witness the ceremony that only happens once every six months."
"Hey, who says it isn't? Every time this time comes, the number of transactions in our market can double than usual."
"The Heaven Sacrifice Ceremony? What is this? Is it because of this that Wen Ziran asked me to take Lu Yibai back to Yaotian City?"
However, I am afraid this question cannot be answered without going to Yaotian City.
Thinking of Wen Ziran, Lin Yu couldn't help but have a headache: when Lu Yibai said goodbye to Lin Yu, he didn't mention his whereabouts.
"That's all, just tell Wen Ziran truthfully that Lu Yibai has left Bitian City and is now missing."
"You kid, this matter is beyond our control. It seems that Wen Ziran is not an unreasonable person. As long as you explain it well, he shouldn't blame you."
"As of now, that's all it can do."
Lin Yu waved his hand to summon a coachman, put the items he purchased into the gourd one by one, and then got on the carriage.
after a while:
"Sir, further ahead is the gate of Yaotian City. Look..."
Lin Yu took out a small bag of source coins that he had prepared before leaving, took out a few coins and handed them to the coachman.
The coachman took the source coin, helped Lin Yu get out of the carriage, and walked to the inn on the side of the road, ready to welcome the next guest.
"This Yaotian City is indeed not comparable to Wuling City and Bitian City that I have been to!"
"Tsk, this Yaotian City is just so-so, but don't forget my old friends. Apart from Zhou Cheng, a few of them are elusive. I'm afraid it's hard to find a normal method. But as long as you find this Zhou Cheng, you can know the traces of the other people."
The old man said.
"Teacher, how strong are these old friends of yours?"
"...I haven't seen him for so many years. I'm afraid this boy Zhou Cheng has broken through to the green level and has become a green level monk."
"Qingjie..." Lin Yu was thoughtful.
"You kid, don't be too ambitious. The Qing Rank is still far away from you. It's better to get familiar with the Nine Transformations Divine Fist."
The old man rolled his eyes, and Lin Yu smiled and said nothing.
"Comers stop, do you have permission to enter the city?"
"Permit to enter the city?" Lin Yu couldn't help but frown:
"What is this permission to enter the city?"
The guard glanced at Lin Yu: "Monks above the orange level can apply for free. Otherwise, you can enter the city after paying 500 source coins."
"No wonder the coachman sent me outside the city gate and turned around to pick up business. I thought I was busy making money, but I didn't expect that I couldn't go into the city to rest."
Lin Yu shook his head. So I went to the check-in office to go through the formalities for entering the city.
After entering Yaotian City, Lin Yu ran around like a headless fly.
"Why is this Yaotian City so big? It takes three or four hours to walk down one street."
Lin Yu complained
"Hey, this size is just average, but compared to the five of us at this time, it has expanded quite a bit."
Walking to the center of the city, Lin Yu asked the old man beside him where Wen Ziran lived.
"My father-in-law, do you know about the Wen family in Yaotian City?"
"The Wen family? But the family that Wen Tong belongs to in Qiushui Pavilion?"
This Wen Tong Lin Yu also heard that Wen Ziran said that he was Wen Ziran's grandfather.
"Go to Wuyi Lane in the west of the city. The five-entry mansion is the Wen family."
"Thank you, husband, for informing me!"
After that, Lin Yu walked towards the west of the city.
I walked and asked questions along the way, and finally found the Wen Mansion.
In front of the Wen Mansion, Lin Yu knocked on the bronze lion with a ring on the door. From time to time, a guard came out, looked Lin Yu up and down, and asked:
"But Mr. Lin Yu?"
"Exactly"
"My young master invites you"
So the guard opened the bronze door and invited Lin Yu into the house.
"Lin Yu! I calculated that you would arrive at Yaotian City today, so I arranged for the guards to let you go as soon as you arrived."
"Brother Wen, I'm so sorry! Your junior sister Lu Yibai..."
Before he finished speaking, Wen Ziran interrupted Lin Yu:
"Brother Lin, when Yibai left, it was to complete the task assigned by the sect leader. Brother Lin, there is no need to worry."
After the two chatted for a few words, Wen Ziran invited Lin Yu to go to Wanghou Pavilion with him.
Wanghou Pavilion is the most famous and elegant restaurant in Yaotian City. It is located in the center of Yaotian City, with four avenues leading directly to the four gates of Wanghou Pavilion in the southeast and northwest. Just like the so-called specifications of royal princes in ancient times when there was no method of cultivating source energy, the Prince Pavilion was built according to this specification.
At the dinner table, Wen Ziran couldn't help but introduce Yaotian City to Lin Yu. When talking about the scenery:
"There are these four dangerous places in Yaotian City. It is said that they were destroyed by several strong men fighting here a hundred years ago."
Wen Ziran eloquently said that these four dangerous places are the Sword Washing Valley, Hualong Pond, Ten Thousand Snake Cave and Yizhi Peak. It is rumored that this sword-washing peak was created by a blue-level Dacheng monk who transformed his energy into a long sword and struck it with one sword move. It is said that this monk later left his own legacy in the valley. Therefore, people go to the valley every day to find adventures and dream of reaching the sky in one step.
Lin Yu became interested after hearing this:
"Then how did the other three dangerous places come about?"
Wen Ziran smiled sarcastically:
"The other three dangerous places...there are too few rumors and no convincing explanations, so I still don't know how they were formed."
Lin Yu couldn't help but feel speechless, and then he seemed to think of something:
"Brother Wen, have you ever heard of the name Zhou Cheng?"
"Ah? I don't know you? Who is this?"
"My master's old friend, my master once told me that he had an old relationship with Mr. Zhou Chengzhou."
When Wen Ziran heard this, he turned around and was about to order the housekeeper to use his identity as the Wen family to search for him and report to him as soon as there was any news.
"Boy, he also has a nickname called the Immortal of Wine," the old man added.
"Oh, he also has a name called the Immortal of Wine."
"The Immortal in Wine!" A look of surprise appeared on Wen Ziran's face.
"It turns out that senior's real name is Zhou Cheng."
"Then there's no need to look for it. Mr. Zhou Cheng is currently traveling to other cities, and the current owner of Yaotian City is his son!"
Lin Yu obviously didn't expect that his teacher's old friend actually had a son of a city lord.
"Then how can I meet Senior Zhou?"
Wen Ziran pondered for a moment:
"Five days later will be Yaotian City's semi-annual heaven-sacrifice ceremony. On that day, an arena will be set up in front of the city lord's mansion. Only young people under the age of 20 will be recruited to participate. If they can get the top three, they can propose a reasonable proposal to the city lord. Please, by then you can also participate in this heaven-sacrifice ceremony, and then you can meet the city lord."
"Is it a heaven-sacrifice ceremony..."
"I didn't expect that after all these years, it would be so troublesome to meet this kid." The old man shook his head.
"It doesn't matter, we haven't seen each other for so many years, so these five days are not that long ago." The old man's eyes flickered.
